No. Amateur radio is a fine hobby, interesting, a fine recreation
with great technological learning capabilities.

Except to a few, such as nursie.


I have enjoyed Amateur Radio since 1972, Lennie.

It has been a great tool, a source of recreation, and a social gathering
place.

And as of today, youa re still not a part of it, save for being a
sidelined scufflaw.

Nursie does NOT "represent" all or even a part of United States
amateur radio.


Sure I do...At least 1/675,000 part of it.

Which is 1/675,000 more than you are.

I dare say that judging by many of the other responses in this forum, than
some of my opinions are also held by others.

Google refers.

I DO antagonize those who have a compulsive disorder known
familiarly as "control freaks" who seek to dominate others by any
means possible. Those are simply wanna-be dictators.


There is only one "control freak" here, Lennie.

You see him in the mirror every morning.

Here's MY "purpose"...It's a proven fact that those who bark the

loudest
or longest are usually the one's who get the most attention.


Nursie just wanna FIGHT. Nursie FIGHT anyone who have opposite
opinions of nursie's.

Bark, bark, bark, little nursie.


Seems I'm the little doggie that got ahold of YOU, Lennie!

Sucks to be you.

There is nothing at all "discrediting" about showing FANTASIES
to be fantasies of the imagination.


The only fantasy in this forum, Lennie, is that you are a person of
respectable character, or that you are making some sort of "constructive"
participation in it.

Education in the radio arts is not accomplished by pretending that
amateur radio is some paramilitary service organization or that
memorizing the advertisements and radio reviews in QST is
"learning" what happens behind the front panels...or that amateur
radio "always comes to the rescue during emergencies when all
the other radio infrastructure 'fails.'"


You are the one with such fantasies, Lennie.

You are the one who makes denigrating comments about parallels between the
Armed Forces and Amateur Radio. And no one here has said "...amateur radio
'always comes to the rescue' ..."'

The FACTS are that Amateur Radio DOES "come to the rescue" in a great many
instances, and it CONTINUES to do so in the 21st Century, cellular and Internet
technology notwithsatnding.

As long as you deem it your "purpose" to do so, I will do MY best to
expose you for the antagonist and mistruthful putz that you are.


Tsk, tsk, tsk. Nursie back into name-calling mode, trying to "win"
newsgrope arguments by some kind of "show of force."


It's no "show of force".

It's the truth.

Amateur radio regulations were established by people, not gods
or chiefs of stuff of some paramilitary organization. Regulations,
standards and procedures all evolved, changed with time. That
will continue to change as time goes on. There is NO divine
purpose to stop change.


Yes, those regulations were established by "people"...

People who have a vested, practical experience in the radio service they
are a PART of...

It was true in 1912...it's true in 2004...

Except for you.

Go figure.

Change is opposed by those who managed to meet OLD
standards and procedures of long ago. They cannot, will not
adjust. They fear change. Change manifests insecurity for
them. Or, they are so ego-driven that they fantasize their
individual accomplishments as so mighty and noble that they
think of themselves as role-models for all.


A rant of monumental proportion, put to rest by any one who cares to
review any of the posts made by any of those persons you refer to as "PCTA's",
myself included.

You were offered SEVERAL apologies and offers to move on, but your

answers
were clearly designed to simply perpetuate an argument.


No. Not on record.


Yes, on record.

In Google and Deja before it...

Nursie has not admitted that either of his
statements about MARS being amateur radio are wrong, nor has
he/she ever admitted to reading any of the military documents
defining and explaining MARS...nor has nursie identified any
part of Title 47 C.F.R. defining MARS as a civilian radio service.


I have read many of those records, Lennie.

None of them dispute my assertion of No Amateur Radio = No MARS.

Recent posts by others here validate the activites of those
MARS-authorized Amateurs in federal communications exercises.

Nursie has never revealed the when and where of any claimed
military "hostile action" yet demands full and complete disclosure
of all others...for any claim. Nursie be a hypocrite.


So far, my unweillingness to disclose whena nd where I was involved in
hostile contact is your ONLY argument, Lennie.

So far, that means you are about 30-1 behind on unansweed questions.

Nursie continually insults others' private and professional lives
clearly designed to induce word FIGHTING and then tries to
say "others did it first!" Nursie be an insulter and hypocrite.


It's not an insult if it's true.

Nursie want to be center of attention. Ego drive. Uses all
palaver in here to divert from real debate he cannot handle, will
not handle if it is against his own precious opinions.

You have nothing to offer.


Nursie make imperious demand.


It was not a demand. It was an observation. So far, one you've not been
able to disprove.

Just the same, I was on the staff of Ham Radio magazine after
being an author-contributor.


Yes...you were...

A magazine that is now defunct due to a lack of readership and
circulation.

So much for your editorial and leadership skills, Lennie.

At the mention of that, nursie will go immediately into ATTACK
mode, all safeties off, insulting all the staff of HR for being a
"defunct" publication...even after 22 years of existance as a
self-sustaining independent periodical for radio amateurs.


I am not "attacking" the staff at HR, Lennie.

Just you.

I am sure Jim Fisk and the other folks were

Nursie will then change gears and say I cribbed all information
("cut and paste" in his words) and had "none of my own."
Nursie not understand any of the articles, too much intellect
for him, therefore author become "enemy of state" to be
destroyed (by any means possible). Poor nursie.


Poor Lennie.

There's no facts to substantiate any of your CLAIMS about them, either.

Nursie think amateur radio all about manual telegraphy or code
testing? Not so. Elimination of code test is my main concern.
That is happening. Very slowly but it is happening. First break
in mighty Amateur damn was in 1990.


Yep. And it happened WITHOUT Lennie. Sunnuvagun!

Small trickle of no-coders
entered ham radio in 1991, are now the largest class group in
U.S. amateur radio.


"Small"...?!?!

I already acknowledged the enabling directives of MARS.


And how was that done? Must have been by private courier or
other means "obscuring the information."


No blinder are those who will NOT see.....

If amateur radio goes away, MARS can remain. All that is
required of DoD is then to update Directive 4650.2.


Sure it can.

Just like there are Jim Crow laws on the books in many southern states.

And until the Department of Defense decides that MARS needs to be staffed
to a level that would make it operationally viable WITHOUT all those Amateur
Radio volunteers, my assertion that NO Amateur Radio = No MARS is accurate.

No. If anything nasty be said about me, it is because I keep on
opposing fantasies blabbered by nursie.


Anything that is said about you is in response to what YOU have said.

Afterall, this exchange wouldn't be possible without you, Lennie. You ARE
your own worse enemy.

MARS, without the thousands of volunteer Amateurs who man it, would not

be
able to carry out those duties those directives require. Period.


MARS has done well WITHOUT those volunteers in exercise
Grecian Firebolt 2002. They are still doing so in 2004.

Sunnuvagun! How about that?


Sunnuvagun...how about all the resports of MARS stations participating
being MOSTLY from "individual" stations...?!?!

You need to participate in forums other than this one, Lennie.

Only a major
manpower restructuring in the Armed Forces would allow it, and under present
circumstances, that is highly unlikely.


Okay, Chief of Stuff, explain THAT gem?

The U.S. military has a very large communications organization
that is done by military personnel. Doesn't involve MARS at all.
Does all the tactical and strategic communications for the military.
Very big. Army Signal Center is at Fort Gordon, GA.


Nice try for a change of tangent, Lennie.

We are not discussing operational military traffic, Lennie.

We are discussing MARS. Not ADA, AIR, WAR, SINCGARS, or equipment
nomenclature...Just the MARS program.

I'd suggest you try and stay focused, but you can't and keep an "edge" in
the arguments.

MARS can go away today and not impact any missions of the
U.S. military.


Yep....I never said anything else.

And I don't need to "intellectualize" anything.


You don't seem to be able to do that. All the readers see is you
personally insulting others who differ with your godlike opinions.


"Godlike"...?!?!

You are not an Amateur Radio licensee. You never have been.

You've made countless assertions and "observations" to and about Amateur
Radio, most of which have been easily rebuked by fact, and certainly NOT
substantiated by any fact from you.

(Shall we once again revisit YOUR assertions of "dishonesty" by ARRL
officials...?!?!)


Everyone with opposite opinions LIES!


Nope.

Nursie = nuts.


Still waiting on you to provide those documents that will demonstrate your
qualifications in mental health education or training, Lennie.

Until then...You're still a putz.

The criteria for federal agencies operating on FCC regualted radio
services is very narrow. "Routine" communications and communications
conducting the business of the organization are NOT "authorized" uses.
Opertional missions are not "legitimate" uses either, except where
inoperability or coordination with other rescue agencies is critical, are not
authorized either.

and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.

So Len could tell the kid to get a book. Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.

You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and

The POINT, Your Junior Putziness, is that Lennie doesn't HAVE the
experience to help the kid OTHER than the theory part.

He can't help with testing, other than to refer him to someone else.

He can't help with the Code (should "the kid" desire to learn it), other
than to refer him to someone else.

He can't help with tutoring "the kid" on proper Amateur Radio operating
technique, other than to refer him to someone else.

He can't help with...well....I can go on and on....

It's NOT about working "both ends against the middle".

It's about what contributions Lennie has alledgedly made to Amateur Radio.

Easily summated, it's ZERO. His only "professional" affiliation with
Amateur Radio went belly-up a long time ago. Furthermore there's not a single
reference, footnote or other attribution of an LHA-authored HR article in ANY
technical text outside of that defunct magazine, and even then, that's 20+ year
old information.

As you can see, no luck was needed...just facts.

I think so.

I once said that a prospective ham almost had to know a

I don't recall that.

Then you guys set upon me like the pack of wild
dogs that you are...


Which "you guys" would that be?

...telling me of acts of heroism...


Acts of heroism? I don't believe you.

how you got the book
and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.


Novice exams weren't taken in front of any FCC examiner, much less a
stelly-eyed examiner. K8CFT wasn't steely-eyed at all. SK W8MN sparked
my interest in becoming a ham but he couldn't learn the theory for me
and I'd moved to a different town by the time I began practicing morse
to increase my speed.

So Len could tell the kid to get a book.


Oh, he wouldn't likely do that. He'd go into one of his Foghorn Lenhorn
pontifications.

Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.


A book can provide information to an extent. No good golfer became one
by reading a book. No good fisherman became one by reading a book. No
good radio op became one by reading a book. Practice and experience are
the keys. Len has neither.

You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and
jiving.


I'd say that they appear contradictory to you, "William", because you
don't fully understand them.

Riiiight...just five-plus decades of experience beginning around 1947.

OH! Maybe the gunnery nurse is going to address the troops at
morning assembly again:

"Amateur radio WORKS DIFFERENT that all other radio services!"

Right..."amateur electrons" instead of commercial ones. Uh huh.

He can't help with testing, other than to refer him to someone else.

Riiiiight...no amateur radio transmitter can WORK on HF without
the "opertator" being tested for manual telegraphy. :-)

Da gubmint and da Army use COMPUTER PROGRAMS to
teach morse code cognition at Fort Huachuca, AZ. Do dat mean
da computers gotta be LICENSED IN HAM RADIO?

Riiiight. PROPER PROCEDURE AND PRACTICE ON THE HAM
BANDS IS MOST IMPORTANT! Hams and hamsters can get

taken out and shot in the AM...and then be chewed out by the
Super Chief Master Gunnery Nurse!

A fate worse than death.

Those that don't use proper procedure might never OPERTATE
again!!!

He can't help with...well....I can go on and on....


Poor nursie, still obsessed with hate.

It's NOT about working "both ends against the middle".


Riiiight...it is capitulation to the loudmouths like gunnery nurse

olde-tyme hamme raddio.

It's about what contributions Lennie has alledgedly made to Amateur
Radio.


WOW! New requirement!

All newcomers MUST CONTRIBUTE to ham radio BEFORE they
get licensed!

Hits a new high in the extra nobility snob category...all serve the
might lords of telegraphy FIRST...then they MIGHT let one come
into "their kingdom" if one groveled well enough to suit their
noble blue-blooded righteousness.

Easily summated, it's ZERO.


Tsk, tsk, tsk. Nursie done expressed all kinds of "informed
opinions" on national and world economy, the socio-political
climate, ad nauseum, and has ZERO credentials or smarts in
that!

NOTHING. NADA. ZIP.

Subject didn't touch ham radio within a light-year but here his
mightyness be sitting, spittle shooting out in rage of denigration
of others, and then NOT knowing radio physics.

His only "professional" affiliation with
Amateur Radio went belly-up a long time ago. Furthermore there's not a single

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Nursie need to read more. :-)

Nursie not know radio theory, certainly not electronics in general.

Nursie need to check out UK website having listings of
radio articles.

Nursie think FCC can make electrons, fields, and waves "act
different" by law if they separate "amateur" radio from all other
radio!

Nursie gots to get more education in theory to UNDERSTAND
technical subjects written up in publications. Memorizing the
sales phrases and jargon in QST advertisements not enough.

Nursie are not right in head.

As you can see, no luck was needed...just facts.


"Facts" in nursieworld much different than reality.

Nursie "facts" not same as real-world facts.

ham to become a ham. Then you guys set upon me like the pack of wild
dogs that you are, telling me of acts of heroism how you got the book
and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.

So Len could tell the kid to get a book. Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.

You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and
jiving.


Big Dave - better known as Herr Robust for his military rank - shucks
and jives more than a jazz band let loose in an Iowa corn field at
harvest time.

He might have been "opertating" his new transceiver and is suffering
from too many oriongasms. He might need Vigoro from Canada for
his mental erectile dysfunction? [he might find out that there's been
an electronics world definition of "software" and "firmware" and
"hardware" for over three decades...but never saw it in QST so
therefore doesn't apply]

Heil wastes everyone's time. :-)

No. Amateur radio is a fine hobby, interesting, a fine recreation
with great technological learning capabilities.

Except to a few, such as nursie.


I have enjoyed Amateur Radio since 1972, Lennie.


It's the ONLY radio you know, nursie.

It has been a great tool, a source of recreation, and a social gathering
place.


Nursie regular bon vivant, trashed bakeries with visitors, etc.

And as of today, youa re still not a part of it, save for being a
sidelined scufflaw.


Mea not bother. Mea been in lots of places youa nevah be in
radio. Tsk, tsk. :-)

Nursie does NOT "represent" all or even a part of United States
amateur radio.


Sure I do...At least 1/675,000 part of it.


Less of a fraction than that. Over 700 thousand U.S. amateur
licenses granted and on the books, nursie, all still valid.

Which is 1/675,000 more than you are.


Nursie have strange mathematic in nursieland. :-)

I dare say that judging by many of the other responses in this forum,

than
some of my opinions are also held by others.

Google refers.


Nursie bad speller. Spelled "google reefers" wrong.

Nursie get one response in favor, exaggerates that. Just like
the Katapult King exaggerated his single patent into 26! :-)

I DO antagonize those who have a compulsive disorder known
familiarly as "control freaks" who seek to dominate others by any
means possible. Those are simply wanna-be dictators.


There is only one "control freak" here, Lennie.


Incorrect. SEVERAL control freaks busy with industrial-strength
ethnic cleanser trying to brush away all NCTAs.

Scrub scrub scrub, three men in a tubie. Nursery rhymes
by the nannies. [nano-technology trying to replace brains]


Nursie just wanna FIGHT. Nursie FIGHT anyone who have opposite
opinions of nursie's.

Bark, bark, bark, little nursie.


Seems I'm the little doggie that got ahold of YOU, Lennie!


Bark, bark, bark, little nursie.

Nursie not "get" anyone. Nursie get worse.

Nursie got nuts with nursieworld facts and ZERO INVOLVEMENT
in space biz trying to make like Weiner von Brawn.

This not "meaningful discourse," only diss and cuss time by
nursie. Not normal. Not sane. Nursie need help.

Don't show more ignorance than what you have already shown us, Lennie.

FRS is regulated under Part 95 of the FCC'S Rules and Regulations.


...and NO LICENSE is required to use one. :-)

Not in "Part 15" that nursie keeps bringing up...:-)

CAP, as a defacto federal agency (as attested to by the Department of

Lots of word dancing. Doesn't mean much because the tune is

Maybe nursie suggest using MARS.


Actually Civil Air Patrol has quite a few stations authorized to operate
in Air Force MARS, Lennie.


Nursie say "Sorry Hans, MARS IS amateur radio!"

If MARS be amateur radio, it can't be "Air Force." Air Force be
military.

No, can't do that, nursie say "MARS IS amateur radio!"

:-)

Nursie made an "ace" of himself again.


No...you did, Lennie. By your lack of practical experience and
operational knowledge.


Nursie be stuck on "inoperability" with most things here. :-)

DoD 4650.2 (eff. 21 Nov 03). Ever hear of it?

Interesting.


I think so.


I think so.

I once said that a prospective ham almost had to know a

I don't recall that.


There's that famous Heil selective memory at work. Next thing you
know you'll forget all about those out of band Frenchmen on 6 meters.

Then you guys set upon me like the pack of wild
dogs that you are...


Which "you guys" would that be?


PCTA. Know any?

...telling me of acts of heroism...


Acts of heroism? I don't believe you.


Yup. And because they display bravery and heroism in the face of the
old-timey exams and examiners, all who wish to enter the Kingdom must
also face those same exams and examiners. But since those old-timey
exams and examiners have gone away, all the new hammies are just not
worthy. Common theme throughout R.R.A.P.

how you got the book
and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.


Novice exams weren't taken in front of any FCC examiner, much less a
stelly-eyed examiner.


Steely-eyed.

K8CFT wasn't steely-eyed at all. SK W8MN sparked
my interest in becoming a ham but he couldn't learn the theory for me
and I'd moved to a different town by the time I began practicing morse
to increase my speed.


So you knew hams prior to being licensed. That fits my story. So
what are you disagreeing with now?

So Len could tell the kid to get a book.


Oh, he wouldn't likely do that. He'd go into one of his Foghorn Lenhorn
pontifications.


Or he could drag out a box of out of band QSL cards...

Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.


A book can provide information to an extent.


A book can provide everything needed to become an amateur.

No good golfer became one
by reading a book. No good fisherman became one by reading a book.


Would you like to add a few more non-radio related categories to your
list?

No good radio op became one by reading a book.


Now you wish to qualify your statement with the word, "good," and
change the subject matter from amateur radio operator to
undifferentiated radio operator.

You have substantially changed the subject matter. Previously, the
subject was a young, unlicensed person wanted to know about Amateur
Radio. Have it your way.

One can become licensed in amateur radio simply by reading a -single-
book and taking an exam. Unless you are saying that those PCTA's who
told me so are liars.

Practice and experience are the keys.


Of course, now that you've substantially changed the subject.

Len has neither.


Above you say, "No good radio op became one by reading a book." You
don't differentiate between amateur radio operators and military radio
operators. Using your changed subject matter, Len has plenty of book
reading, training, practice, and experience. I might add that he also
has formal education in the subject matter.

You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and
jiving.


I'd say that they appear contradictory to you, "William", because you
don't fully understand them.


Of course. Heil knows all. He is the very definition of Omniscient.

And all others are ignorant.

"You don't need a former military weatherman to know which way the wind

You hate Amateur Radio and Amateur Radio licensees.

That's blatantly
obvious.

No. Amateur radio is a fine hobby, interesting, a fine

recreation
with great technological learning capabilities.

Aside from hearsay or SWLing, how would you know, Leonard?

Heil, you've done that schtick already. It doesn't apply. It
doesn't work. Give up on that ploy.

It isn't schtick and it is no ploy, Leonard.

If some kid, assuming that he is above the age which you believe

should
be the minimum for amateur radio licensing, comes to you and says,

"What
can you tell me about amateur radio, Mr. Anderson?", the best you'll

be
able to do is tell him that you heard from a friend that amateur

radio
is....
or that you read in a book that amateur radio is...

You're shucking and jiving, Leonard.

Dave K8MN

Interesting.

I think so.


I think so.

I once said that a prospective ham almost had to know a
ham to become a ham.

I don't recall that.


There's that famous Heil selective memory at work. Next thing you
know you'll forget all about those out of band Frenchmen on 6 meters.


I know this'll come as a real disappointment to you, "William", but I
don't hang on your every word.


Big Dave manage to hang hisself by his OWN words! :-)

I have only so much space available for
mental storage and I like to reserve it for the really important
matters.


Riiiiight. For song titles "yet to be published."

Are ASCAP and BMI chomping at the bit on that? Or have
they been bit. :-)

Then you guys set upon me like the pack of wild
dogs that you are...

Which "you guys" would that be?


PCTA. Know any?


I know several. Are you telling us that everyone who is for morse
testing and who posts here "set upon you like a pack of wild dogs" and
that everyone who is for morse testing and who posts here is a part of a
pack of wild dogs? I don't believe you.


"Use the metaphors, Luke, the metaphors."

May the metaphors be with you, Luke Skyhawker.

Big Dave be lissen to nursie too much...

...telling me of acts of heroism...

Acts of heroism? I don't believe you.


Yup. And because they display bravery and heroism in the face of the
old-timey exams and examiners, all who wish to enter the Kingdom must
also face those same exams and examiners.


The above is a perfect example of why I don't hang on your every word.
It isn't factual and is certainly less than memorable.


Big Dave not see "hostile action" outside of newsgroup?

Tsk.

But since those old-timey
exams and examiners have gone away, all the new hammies are just not
worthy. Common theme throughout R.R.A.P.


Did you figure out that end-fed antenna yet?


Big Dave feed his end too much?

how you got the book
and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.

Novice exams weren't taken in front of any FCC examiner, much less a
stelly-eyed examiner.


Steely-eyed.

K8CFT wasn't steely-eyed at all. SK W8MN sparked
my interest in becoming a ham but he couldn't learn the theory for me
and I'd moved to a different town by the time I began practicing morse
to increase my speed.


So you knew hams prior to being licensed. That fits my story. So
what are you disagreeing with now?


Re-read the exchange above and get back to me.


Why? Big Dave no understand it? Tsk.

So Len could tell the kid to get a book.

Oh, he wouldn't likely do that. He'd go into one of his Foghorn Lenhorn
pontifications.


Or he could drag out a box of out of band QSL cards...


Any amateur radio QSLs Len could produce would be either "out of band"
or would belong to someone else.


This sub-thread NOT about me.

Why Big Dave want to concentrate on personal attacks?

Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.

A book can provide information to an extent.


A book can provide everything needed to become an amateur.

No good golfer became one
by reading a book. No good fisherman became one by reading a book.


Would you like to add a few more non-radio related categories to your
list?


No, but I'd like you to take my list as a whole because it illustrates
precisely the idea that I'm attempting to convey.


Attempt failed. Try again. :-)

Hint: "Use the metaphors, Luke." :-)

No good radio op became one by reading a book.


Now you wish to qualify your statement with the word, "good," and
change the subject matter from amateur radio operator to
undifferentiated radio operator.


You can add the word "amateur" before radio and the meaning is still the
same.


"Amateur amateur radio operator" oxymoron.

Valve open your cannula, Big Dave...O-two not enough there.

You have substantially changed the subject matter. Previously, the
subject was a young, unlicensed person wanted to know about Amateur
Radio. Have it your way.


Actually, you have done so. You have Len suggesting a book. The fact
is, Len has no practical experience in amateur radio.


Riiiight...all newcomers to ham radio MUST have "practical
experience" BEFORE getting ham license! :-)

All newcomers thus become illegal. :-)


One can become licensed in amateur radio simply by reading a -single-
book and taking an exam. Unless you are saying that those PCTA's who
told me so are liars.


You're quite right. Someone can pass an exam and become a radio amateur.
Absent practice and experience, that person can be a complete lid.


Riiiiight...close all lids on amateur radio! Nothing open!

Practice and experience are the keys.


Of course, now that you've substantially changed the subject.


Not really, Brian. You have Len suggesting a book.


What's wrong with "Ham Radio for Dummies?" :-)

This looks like ready reading audience for same...

Len has neither.


Above you say, "No good radio op became one by reading a book." You
don't differentiate between amateur radio operators and military radio
operators. Using your changed subject matter, Len has plenty of book
reading, training, practice, and experience. I might add that he also
has formal education in the subject matter.


So Len is a good golfer?


Why are you always referring to me? You obsessed with civilians,
mighty amateur? Tsk.

BTW...I used to shoot in the low 80s until the club made me
give up my firearms...


You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and
jiving.

I'd say that they appear contradictory to you, "William", because you
don't fully understand them.


Of course. Heil knows all. He is the very definition of Omniscient.


How would you know that unless you are (no cap necessary) omniscient?


Heil know everything. He tell others he do. Redefines computer
terms, knows all about software defined radios. Godlike. Gods
are all omniscient. Very smart too.

And all others are ignorant.


Not at all. I've made no such statement. We have on occasion, found
some areas where you have exhibited ignorance.


Ignorance be capital crime in hum radio?

Hum radio be closed to lids.

Etc.

"You don't need a former military weatherman to know which way the wind

Apparently, you do. I'd suggest you stop ****ing in the wind.

Nursie be da gunnery nurse, superham and hero of "seven

Feel free. So, when are you going to do that?


Probably after you get your "Extra right out of the box".


I have extra boxes. Nothing in there for Heil. Except air.

Heil have much air.

Many radio amateurs have been or are participants in the

I've worked with some of those longer than herr robust has
been a ham.


Wonderful. Now if you'd only been a ham as long as I've been a ham...


Well, that must mean you are cured. Or well-preserved.

You have an FDA stamping?

They not behave like Big Dave, the officious pompous
authoritity figure telling all what to do and how to do it.


You must have me confused with yourself, Big Len. You're all
officious. You're certainly pompous and long-winded and you've spent
years here attempting to outline how amateur radio should be regulated.
Fact is, you have nothing to do with amateur radio.


Poor Heil, not with FCC. Not with ARRL BoD. BooHoo.

Puff, puff, puff is der Oberst. Air. Hot. Much.

If you'd like to impress us, obtain an amateur

"Impressing" big dave is NOT in my life's plan. :-)


Then you'll likely want to knock off the countless retellings of your
fifty years experience in whatever.


This is talking of years of personal existance?

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Only seems like "countless" to all readers of

of morse goad in his last years.

Big Dave can only be impressed by looking at his own image

I beg to differ. I'm impressed by a great many people, both famous and
unknown. You didn't make the list.


Not a list anyone wants to be on... :-)

Now you go ahead and chew those Guinea-Bisseau cashews and

The question is was DAVE out of band.

So far, nothing he or you has indicated he was.

Actually, you have done so. You have Len suggesting a book. The fact
is, Len has no practical experience in amateur radio.


Ooops. You forgot to remove the word "amateur" from your statement.

Len has plenty of experience.


Dave was quite accuarate.

Lennie has NO practical experience in AMATEUR Radio.

No one disputes Lennie's "experience" in "radio". I am sure after all the
websites he's cut and pasted from he HAS actually learned SOMETHING about
Amateur Radio too, but as I am sure you know for yourself, that which one
learns in a book as opposed to "how it is" is not always the same.

So Len is a good golfer?


Dunno? Did Len read a golfing book?


I for one have no doubt that if Lennie reads a golfing book, he will be
quick to let us know just how smart he is about golfing wether he's been on the
links or not.

Most likely not, but we'll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Personally, I find golfing no more interesting than providing an adequate
length of turf as an alternative runway in an emergency. It also provides me
with plenty of professional opportunities since a lot of cardiac arrests are
taken off the 9th hole. Usually physicians, bankers and stock brokers.

Now...we await to find out just how much Lennie knows about golfing. I am
sure he worked with someone in "the aerospace industry" who played golf and
shared enough stories with Lennie so that he could regale us with some
reasonably accurate sounding tales.. Maybe he caddy'd some while on that
rear-area tour of duty in 1953....

information about the "larger world of radio," specifically MARS in
which he claims to be a participant.

Yes, I actually read the material.

"Free to" does not equate to "forced to".


There you go trying to change the subject matter again. It never was
about "forced to." Steve does not avail himself to the facts. He
continually spouts false statements. He will continue to do so until
he freely avails himself to factual information, which Len has nicely
provided a clickable link for his use. It couldn't be simpler. So,
Len does wish more ignorant amateurs would freely seek out information
about the "larger world of radio." It would certainly save the rest
of a lot of trouble.

Many radio amateurs have been or are participants in the
"larger world of radio".


One in particular also participates in MARS and CAP communications,
but apparently has never been trained. He cannot differentiate
between the Amateur Service and MARS, repeatedly backing his statement
that "MARS IS Amateur Radio."


Without amateur radio ops, there'd be no MARS program.


The program would exist with no volunteers whatsoever.

Permission. Work out of band Frenchmen. Get Monkey on Back.

I'd be interested in seeing your cite of where in the rules it says that
Dave, or anyone else for that matter, is responsible for making sure the OTHER
station is operating within his/her nations regulatory requirements.


Irrelevant. Nursie get "cite" will disagree, no matter what.

Nursie not play well with "cites." :-)

Did you figure out that end-fed antenna yet?


I think you're telling me I'm not worthy. Are you?


Well...are you?


Nursie know antenna theory? Nursie learn in nursie school,
get fancy certificate with elaborate border (suitable for
framing?).

Nursie know which way Vector is Poynting? :-)

You KNOW my answer.


Nursie answer: Garbage-mouth reply, insulting person.

Nursie know squat about theory. Can only squat.

Any amateur radio QSLs Len could produce would be either "out of band"
or would belong to someone else.


So you and Len do have something in common. Now maybe you can treat
each other as human beings.


The question is was DAVE out of band.


Heil out of reality. Heil have godlike powers, never wrong.

So far, nothing he or you has indicated he was.


Irrelevant. Godlike creatures no need to explain anything,
always right, always superior to inferior beings.

Actually, you have done so. You have Len suggesting a book. The fact
is, Len has no practical experience in amateur radio.


Ooops. You forgot to remove the word "amateur" from your statement.

Len has plenty of experience.


Dave was quite accuarate.


Heil is everything but always right. Even when "accuarate"
(whatever that is...).

Lennie has NO practical experience in AMATEUR Radio.


Nursie astound all with obviousness...of obtuseness.

Nursie godlike being also, always right, never wrong, can
insult "inferior beings" at whim. His whim always hanging
out in here.

No one disputes Lennie's "experience" in "radio". I am sure after all

the
websites he's cut and pasted from he HAS actually learned SOMETHING about
Amateur Radio too, but as I am sure you know for yourself, that which one
learns in a book as opposed to "how it is" is not always the same.


Nursie say Hum Radio allatime different other radio.

Nursie godlike, never wrong...can direct, correct DoD.

Nursie write own book, "Book of Facts!" Book not
available outside of nursieland.

So Len is a good golfer?


Dunno? Did Len read a golfing book?


I for one have no doubt that if Lennie reads a golfing book, he will be
quick to let us know just how smart he is about golfing wether he's been on
the links or not.


No have golfing book. Got balls.

Nursie nutso.

Temper fry...

You hate Amateur Radio and Amateur Radio licensees.

That's blatantly
obvious.

No. Amateur radio is a fine hobby, interesting, a fine

recreation
with great technological learning capabilities.

Aside from hearsay or SWLing, how would you know, Leonard?

Heil, you've done that schtick already. It doesn't apply. It
doesn't work. Give up on that ploy.

It isn't schtick and it is no ploy, Leonard.

If some kid, assuming that he is above the age which you believe

should
be the minimum for amateur radio licensing, comes to you and says,

"What
can you tell me about amateur radio, Mr. Anderson?", the best

you'll be
able to do is tell him that you heard from a friend that amateur

radio
is....
or that you read in a book that amateur radio is...

You're shucking and jiving, Leonard.

Dave K8MN

Interesting.

I think so.

I think so.

I once said that a prospective ham almost had to know a
ham to become a ham.

I don't recall that.

There's that famous Heil selective memory at work. Next thing you
know you'll forget all about those out of band Frenchmen on 6 meters.


I know this'll come as a real disappointment to you, "William", but I
don't hang on your every word. I have only so much space available for
mental storage and I like to reserve it for the really important
matters.


Just don't forget that the world's greatest DXer worked out of band
frenchmen on 6 meters, and if he had to do it over again, he would.

The second part is memorable.


Heil have godlike powers, never wrong, ever.

Then you guys set upon me like the pack of wild
dogs that you are...

Which "you guys" would that be?

PCTA. Know any?


I know several. Are you telling us that everyone who is for morse
testing and who posts here "set upon you like a pack of wild dogs" and
that everyone who is for morse testing and who posts here is a part of a
pack of wild dogs? I don't believe you.


If you disagree, you've had years to correct it. But instead, the
PCTA give each other passes all day long. Hell, after six years of
idiotic posts from Bruce, the Rev Jim finally got cornered and had to
agree that Bruce was an idiot and his postings were abusive.


Rev. Jimmie Who is turning, has now reverted to old self,
slyly snarling.

Expect another Sermon on the Antenna Mount from Jimmie,
soon after Field Day (in the park).

...telling me of acts of heroism...

Acts of heroism? I don't believe you.

Yup. And because they display bravery and heroism in the face of the
old-timey exams and examiners, all who wish to enter the Kingdom must
also face those same exams and examiners.


The above is a perfect example of why I don't hang on your every word.
It isn't factual and is certainly less than memorable.


You'd work the out of band Frenchmen if you had to do it over again.


Maybe Heil get french kiss from orion, get oriongasm?

:-)

But since those old-timey
exams and examiners have gone away, all the new hammies are just not
worthy. Common theme throughout R.R.A.P.


Did you figure out that end-fed antenna yet?


I think you're telling me I'm not worthy. Are you?


EVERYONE not agreeing with Heil be "not worthy!" :-)

how you got the book
and read it and went down to the steely-eyed fcc examiner and became

a
ham. No sir! No help from no one.

Novice exams weren't taken in front of any FCC examiner, much less a
stelly-eyed examiner.

Steely-eyed.

K8CFT wasn't steely-eyed at all. SK W8MN sparked
my interest in becoming a ham but he couldn't learn the theory for me
and I'd moved to a different town by the time I began practicing morse
to increase my speed.

So you knew hams prior to being licensed. That fits my story. So
what are you disagreeing with now?


Re-read the exchange above and get back to me.


You knew two hams prior to being licensed.


He buy one in market? :-)

So Len could tell the kid to get a book.

Oh, he wouldn't likely do that. He'd go into one of his Foghorn

Lenhorn
pontifications.

Or he could drag out a box of out of band QSL cards...


Any amateur radio QSLs Len could produce would be either "out of band"
or would belong to someone else.


So you and Len do have something in common. Now maybe you can treat
each other as human beings.


Heh heh heh. Ordinary mortals cannot get along with radio
gods...must all be subservient to godlike creatures doing bad
imitations of Otto Preminger. :-)

Which according to your
comment above, a book just isn't going to give sufficient information
to be able to answer questions about amateur radio.

A book can provide information to an extent.

A book can provide everything needed to become an amateur.

No good golfer became one
by reading a book. No good fisherman became one by reading a book.

Would you like to add a few more non-radio related categories to your
list?


No, but I'd like you to take my list as a whole because it illustrates
precisely the idea that I'm attempting to convey.


Perhaps Steven Hawking read a book about basketball.


Not good to pin Heil to mat so many times. He will
complain to the Armenian judges and they chant
something awful. So does Heil, come to think of it. :-)

No good radio op became one by reading a book.

Now you wish to qualify your statement with the word, "good," and
change the subject matter from amateur radio operator to
undifferentiated radio operator.


You can add the word "amateur" before radio and the meaning is still the
same.


They all became good radio ops by sarting with a book.


Impossible in Heil fantasyland.

All who are "interested" in radio MUST get ham license.
Cannot be "interested" in radio without that license in Heil
fantasyland.

You have substantially changed the subject matter. Previously, the
subject was a young, unlicensed person wanted to know about Amateur
Radio. Have it your way.


Actually, you have done so. You have Len suggesting a book. The fact
is, Len has no practical experience in amateur radio.


Ooops. You forgot to remove the word "amateur" from your statement.


Heil never make mistake. Heil godlike, always right.

When Heil make actual mistake, is merely "clarification"
for the inferior. :-)

Len has plenty of experience.


Not at all in Heil fantasyland. Heil issue orders.

All "interested" in radio MUST get amateur license.

No amateur license, not "interested' in radio, be inferior,
unworthy, beneath royal burple of godlike nobility. So
be it in Heil fantasyland.

One can become licensed in amateur radio simply by reading a -single-
book and taking an exam. Unless you are saying that those PCTA's who
told me so are liars.


You're quite right. Someone can pass an exam and become a radio amateur.
Absent practice and experience, that person can be a complete lid.


Even the most learned of amateurs may find himself working out of band
Frenchmen on 6 meters. The shame of it is that he could have learned
something from it, but didn't.


Heil not need to "Learn" anything. Heil already godlike,
never wrong. He be superior. Always, anything.

Practice and experience are the keys.

Of course, now that you've substantially changed the subject.


Not really, Brian. You have Len suggesting a book.


insert snippet from above
--------------
If some kid, assuming that he is above the age which you believe

should
be the minimum for amateur radio licensing, comes to you and says,

"What
can you tell me about amateur radio, Mr. Anderson?", the best

you'll be

You're shucking and jiving, Leonard.

--------------

It would appear that you took the book idea and ran with it.


Heil infuriated that book "Ham Radio for Dummies" exists?

tsk, tsk. Demeans his Royal Court. Makes him jester.

That bad.

Len has neither.

Above you say, "No good radio op became one by reading a book." You
don't differentiate between amateur radio operators and military radio
operators. Using your changed subject matter, Len has plenty of book
reading, training, practice, and experience. I might add that he also
has formal education in the subject matter.


So Len is a good golfer?


Dunno? Did Len read a golfing book?


Len play golf. Gave up. Had to pay Heil greens fee.

Heil green that others have bigger outside-of-hum-radio
experience. Big greens fee!

Heil are hole in one.

I wonder why there are so many golfing books written and sold?


[golf world will sell anything not nailed down...:-) ]


You guys play both ends against the middle, and now that you've

worked
down to the middle, your arguments fail because they are
contradictory. Go argue with yourself. You, K8MN, are shucking and
jiving.

I'd say that they appear contradictory to you, "William", because you
don't fully understand them.

Of course. Heil knows all. He is the very definition of Omniscient.


How would you know that unless you are (no cap necessary) omniscient?


I should have said that you are "The Omniscient!"


Heil have godlike powers, allowed to strike dunder and blitzen
on all inferior beings.

Santa Claus need new team. Dunder and blitzen on strike.

And all others are ignorant.


Not at all. I've made no such statement. We have on occasion, found
some areas where you have exhibited ignorance.


Natch.


All disagreeing with Heil are inferior. Radio god has spoken,
defined such.


"You don't need a former military weatherman to know which way the wind
blows"

Apparently, you do. I'd suggest you stop ****ing in the wind.


One of my favorite country song titles, yet to be recorded:
"If I Had It To Do All Over Again, I'd Do It All Over You".


Sounds like a tune by "Slim Chance and the Crying Cowboys." ;^)


Boo hoo. Rainy weather.

Grand old Opry go dark when Heil sing. Radio gods have no
godlike power in C&W.

In your rush to try and make more of your own "newsgroup messaging

you tripped right over the part where I said "...OTHER than the theory

Oh well.


Poor nursie. Still thinking ham radio works DIFFERENT than all

Poor nursie will come unglued at what he thinks is a "profane

Speaking of which...

You created this "newsgroup messaging points" farce, yet have never

What "farce?" Nursie statements? THAT be a farce!

Nursie badly need to talk to DoD on MARS, get straight.

What's up with that?


Yes, WHY doesn't nursie agree with DoD? Should...

That was a rhetorical question, by the way...WE all know you are deeply

? Nursie go nuts again. Imagine things.

Maybe that's why there were never any Mini-Lennie's for you to nurture

and
gain some practical experience upon which to base your "there ought to be an
age limit" suggestion for Amateur Radio...?!?!


Nursie VERY nuts. Thinks this is still 5 years ago.

Time marches on but nursie can't hear cadence or keep in step.

Yet ANOTHER unaccomplished task.


Nursie need help. Not get it in newsgroup.

Nursie try reading "Ham Radio for Dummies?" Apt.

Poor nursie. Never been involved with the larger world of radio,
only other amateurs and posturing, always FIGHTING. I've
been in the larger world of radio for half a century. Radio is not
a magical mystery to me nor is communications of any sort by
visual or audible means,


Why does it always have to be about you, Len?


It could be about your forgetfulness, but then there wouldn't be much
discussion, would there?

Radio amateurs are free
to seek out information about the "larger world of radio" in any number
of venues.


And Len disagrees?


Herr robust thinks so. Why else would he drop in an waste so
much time?

You ought to take it up with Steve as he refuses to seek out
information about the "larger world of radio," specifically MARS in
which he claims to be a participant.


Heil could always get nursie a copy of "Ham Radio for Dummies."

:-)

Many radio amateurs have been or are participants in the
"larger world of radio".


One in particular also participates in MARS and CAP communications,
but apparently has never been trained. He cannot differentiate
between the Amateur Service and MARS, repeatedly backing his statement
that "MARS IS Amateur Radio."

Hi, hi!


Nursie say "No HAM Radio, no MARS." Still wrong, still trying to
foist that off on folks. Maybe Heil will support him on that?

If you'd like to impress us, obtain an amateur
radio license of any class and regale us with those tales.


What tales?

Steely-eyed FCC examiners?


Oh, wow, just like a "hostile action!" :-)

Taking an exam on a lark, without studying, scoring perfectly, in
under 8 minutes, and collecting $200 for passing go?


Would be easier to take it at a table. Larks are fidgety, like
to flap their wings and make noise. Like PCTAs.

Naw, sounds too much like PCTA tales.


"Tales of the Souse Pacific." :-)
